Love is All I Am

I need a silent, true way to admire

Like you as a sunset, and I as a wildfire

And I can let the day go

I've locked up these words in fear that I'd say them wrong

Is it love as a mountain or love as a simple song?

And the moment that the two meet

Has now laid itself at your feet

And love is not convenient

It does not cease at your command

You might take and leave it

But love is all I am

Love is all I am

I need a boundless, soft way to commend

Like you as a temper and I as its tender end

And however long your fits last

I will live within your shadow cast

And love is still your stranger

It does not respect how much you'll stand

You might be love's reminder

But love is all I am

Love is all I am

I need a graceful, proud way to let go

To smile and accept the things that you don't know

The losses and the gains blurred

The weight of these as last words

And love is not excitement

It's not kissing or holding hands

I'm not some assignment

No, love is all I am

Love is all I am
